DEATH WAS VERY GENIAL
by Satish Verma → (All Poetry by Satish Verma)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

In the service of flesh
new vision was perfecting a cult;
silence was going home.

It was not there
freedom of defense for bread, but
I must pay the price of hunger.

The oblique afterthought
compelled by nocturnal infidelity
picks up the black threads,
minute by minute.
Death was very genial.

Comes silently behind the cacti -
across the intelligent green.
One has to pay for touching greatness.

The thoughts will never go
from the unwinking eyes.
I was listening to the footsteps.

Satish Verma

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior
